Are you a compassionate and motivated individual who wants to change people’s lives? Our Liskeard Community Drug and Alcohol service is looking for a Lived Experience Support Worker to join them in providing high quality recovery care to a diverse client group. If you are looking for a role where you can connect with and support people who are using drugs or alcohol using your own lived experience, and are passionate about changing people’s lives for the better, we’d love to hear from you.

As a Lived Experience Support Worker in Cornwall you’ll join us on a salary of £27,250 per annum pro rata (this includes a £1,000 per annum allowance). This role is permanent and part time working 18.75 hours per week.

In Cornwall, you’ll be part of a dedicated local team supporting people across our communities to make positive, lasting changes. At WithYou, we’re committed to supporting our staff just as much as the people we work alongside. You’ll have access to a supportive and inclusive team environment and a range of wellbeing benefits to help you thrive both professionally and personally.

All applicants must submit a CV along with a cover letter explaining why they should be considered for this role and more information about your lived experience with addiction. Applications will not be accepted without a cover letter.

Job Description

We are looking for a Lived Experience Support Worker to join our North and East team. You will be based at our Liskeard office. This role is suitable only for candidates who have had personal lived experience of drug and alcohol issues and who are willing to draw on this experience in their day to day work. This is likely to involve disclosure of this personal experience.

We are part of a large integrated drug and alcohol service working with some of Cornwall's most excluded and disadvantaged people. Successful candidates will work as part of the adult community team, alongside in-house services which include outreach, hospital, clinical, criminal justice and a residential rehabilitation facility.

The successful candidate will work alongside Recovery Workers, using your knowledge and experience to encourage people to use the service and support them when they are not, working with individuals to achieve their goals. Using your lived experience, you will support our clients with their journey either into recovery or maintaining their recovery.

Our Lived Experience Support Workers are an active and integral part of our teams, bringing ideas and solutions so we can develop and improve our recovery communities and helping our clients to get onto the path to recovery. In your role, you will reach people through outreach, harm reduction, structured interventions and activities and will show through your own experience, knowledge and learning that change is possible.

If you think this could be the career for you, take the first step and apply now to join our amazing team.
